How wonderful are these! I enjoy knitting dishcloths. They are easy to knit, take with you, practical, great to give and fun to receive. The patterns are: Grandma's Favorite and Ball Band Dishcloth. I have gotten over the idea that Grandma's Dishcloths need to be all the same color. I noticed my friend Ann knitting one and when she ran out of yarn she just used another color. OMG! what a good idea, now I have a use for all those little scraps I have saved.Grandma's Favorite
1 ball of worsted weight cotton like Sugar N’ Cream or Peaches & Cream
Needle size 8
DIRECTIONS

The Ballband Dishcloth pattern is found on the yarn band of Peaches & Cream yarn (I have found it at Walmart) and on this web site: Ballband Dishcloth
